Whisky Jug Maker Question

[masterdan407]

I bought this whiskey jug, because I love these and I don't know anything about it. I cant find this mark anywhere and I was wondering if anyone had any idea about it. Its appears to be a 3 gallon jug and the cork says "combs" and then it says something under it that I cant make out. I am not sure if the cork is the original. Thanks in advance!

Could it be MACOMB? I can't see it at all.

Almost certain it will read: MACOMBS. Know nothing else.

The Mark on the jug is an Early McCoy Mark that they used to put on the stoneware crocks and jugs they made way back in the day. Now we can say "That's the real McCoy!".
